With all due respect I have posted Queenslandian photos in the past.

Due respect duly noted.  I haven't looked in on the game for months because the times I had the pix were of rather abstruse locations in Vic and SA that I had no idea of.

Neither of them.  They're both basically farms.

No, but still in the correct district- too far north.

It does look like the same boab.  I wonder where you took that photo?    :think1
Your first guess is still the best.

Bingo!  It was going to be identified eventually.  I thought it would go off very quickly, because the only towns between Eidsvold and Mt Perry of the size in the photo are Mundubbera and Gayndah.
The baob is actually on the Lookout to the south of the town.  It's a fair climb but well worth the effort.
It's a very nice town with the huge Burnett River bed right next to it.  I say "bed" because the river isn't much most of the time, but is massive when in flood with an extraordinarily high bridge over it.
